Webos doctor frozen at 8% when trying to recover my touchpad

My Touch pad is not working at all, when turned on it displays one very disturbing message "www.palm.com/rom" and nothing else works. i have since used webos doctor to try and restore my tablet but to no avail every time i try to recover the device webos doctor freezes at 8% (why 8% i have no idea).

At no point have i tried to modified my touchpad with any software, its only ever had the stock software installed on it.

Does anyone know why it would be freezing at 8%, the more common one i have seen is 12% but everything anyone suggests for that fix doesn't seem to work for me

any help would be awesome i'm completely out of ideas i've spent hours trying to find a fix.

Thank you.

without seeing the log file, one can use the webOS 3.0.0 doctor (which rebuilds all partitions), one can remove all partitions are recreate them, one can run F S C K (one word, File System Checker) against each partition, post the console log for further help.

Yup, you need to reformat. I posted something on that topic before, but I need to find it. Check my posts from my profile in the meantime. You should also use the official Java Novaterm instead of the C# version. The Java version comes in the official Novacom package, linked in the resource list from my Sig.

Could u link where i get the "official Java Novaterm" i haven't been able to find it sifting through forum posts. i've been a little jaded to try to recover my touch pad the last few days. since i spend several hours and got absolutely nowhere but i'll give it another shot soon.

Download the full Novacom package (from the link in my resource list from my signature), and run
